We strive to propel all emerging business owners, to have the courage and support to achieve their business ownership dreams. How can we help? Start Your Business: The Inspired Entrepreneur A 20-week intensive accelerator for women in the early stages of their business. This small group meets every other week for four hours. Each entrepreneur builds a robust business plan, conducts market research, creates their sales pipeline and pricing structure, develops their elevator pitch, and graduates upon presentation of their three-minute sales pitch to a panel of judges. Grow Your Business: Power Circles A confidential, facilitated peer network group for women who have been in business at least one year. This group meets monthly to help each other solve business problems quickly and efficiently, increase each other’s entrepreneurial savvy, and decrease the sense of isolation that many early to mid-stage business owners feel. Mentor Match This is for women entrepreneurs who have been in business at least 3 years and are looking to achieve specific business goals through a mentor. WSBA Board Members interview each “Mentee” to assess their goals and personality, and then hand-match them with a successful business leader in our community who has achieved similar goals. The program is for 12 months and begins based on the schedule of the participants. The Mentee runs the program based on their goals and the ability of the Mentor to help them achieve their goals.
